mtl-2.x changed all the base monads (State, Reader, Writer, etc.) from
standalone to being transformers atop an Identity monad; this cleans up the
implementation considerably (since we don't have almost exactly the same
code for both the standalone and transformer versions, but means that all
uses of the standalone constructors must be replaced with functions that
build the appropriate transformer. (e.g. State becomes state, unless you
want to spell it out as StateT Identity.)
